Stereo & Electronics - Fuse: Door locks and Map/Dome lights

Took the SS for a spin today after setting in store for awhile. The battery was pretty low but it was able to start then I kept hearing a click sound over by the pass side console it sounded like. I guess it was probably a relay clicking. Then I notice none of the interior dome/map lights work and also the door locks were not working. I looked for a fuse for a few seconds but could not find one. Could this be a bad relay or maybe the battery was just took low? Last time I got it out I forgot the wrench so I just put the battery cables on as tight as I could by hand and that was the first time I had it out in a long time and the first time I noticed the clicking but I think the locks and lights worked then. What you guys think the issue is?? Im going to charge the battery tomorrow im gonna take it out, then ill prob buy a trickle charger for it.

Anyone??

The COURTESY fuse (#8) provides power to both the interior lights and the power locks through the BCM.

K thanks man ill check that 1.

Thanks again that was the fuse I just got back from replacing it and bought me a charger/maintainer for my battery. I think it blew cause the wires on my door led are touching I think. I bought some better leds that im going to replace them with.

Ok hooked the battery back up today and the driver door light is working but the locks and map/dome is not. When I hit the lock button it makes a noise I forget what noise it was but im thinking it was the seatbelt noise right now. I also still hear the clicking behind the dash over near the pass side. If the + and - on the led in my pass door are touching you think that could be it?? Whats up this is bothering the shit out of me.

The door lights are not part of the courtesy light circuit - they're part of the parking light circuit. So it is probably still the COURTESY fuse since that handles the dome light, map lights, and door locks. If you replace the fuse and it blows right away then you have a short somewhere (perhaps your LEDs). If it doesn't blow again then it could be just that the fuse was old - they blow more easily after a few years of use.

Ok thanks man. The only short I could think of is my led in the door though why would it blow that fuse if they arent part of that circuit?

But, as I said, sometimes fuses blow without there being a short in the circuit. Old fuses can even have their filaments break because of vibration that has nothing to do with an electrical problem. That's why you should always use a fuse tester or replace suspect fuses with known good ones - they can look fine but still be blown.

Ok thanks man it was a pretty old fuse.

Finally backed the car out of the storage spot today and got some good fuses. Fixed the issue it was my led dome light it was shorting out it was not in there very well.
